About this map

Palmito Hill Battlefield occupies the center of this coastal landscape, marking the site where the final land action of the American Civil War occurred along the meandering Rio Grande. The terrain is defined by a series of low ridges, or lomas, such as Loma de la Jauja and Loma del Muerto, which rise above the surrounding tidal flats and brush country between San Martin Lake and the river.
